This will be my 3rd time participating in the 3rd Annual Big Poetry Book Giveaway which was started by Kelli Agodon.
I love this project! The first year I gave away copies of “Paper House” and A Van Jordan’s “Macnolia.” Last year I gave away copies of “The Wait of Atom” and the chapbook “Love Poem to Androgyny”
I was having trouble deciding what books to give away this year because I do still have two remaining copies of the special edition of “The Wait of Atom” but I also have a new chapbook. Well, I’ve decided to give away at least three books.
First up I will be giving away one of the last special edition copies of Atom. So if you already have this book then you should indicate so when you enter to win below. More details on that in just a few.
Second, I will give away a copy of “Fat Girl” and, as maybe a twist, I’ll give away either a print or digital copy so you should indicate which you would prefer in case you win.
And, finally, a non-me book that I want to give away – so many good ones! – yet I have decided on my favorite recent must read Imago by Joseph O. Legaspi.
To enter you must indicate which books (and versions) you are most interested in and make sure that you list your email when you register to leave your comment. Your email will not show, but I’ll have them saved in wordpress so I will know how to contact you if you should win.
I will take entries until midnight (EST) on April 30th and then I will announce winners within a few days after that. Spread the word and look for other ones to enter! Let’s share some poetry

Ooooh, count me in!
I’m interested in all of them. But I’d love to check out The Wait of Atom the most. Paper version, please.
This is awesome!
I would love to have either The Wait of Atom or Fat Girl in the paper version. If I were greedy I would beg for them both. LOL.
I already have Fat Girl, but would love one of the others!

Count me in, Jessie. I have ‘The Wait for Atom’ but would love a print copy of your other book, or the Legaspi [I have a friend, former student, with that last name].

Nice to meet you, Jessie. I’d love to win any of the books — haven’t read any of them — and would prefer a paper copy if it’s your chapbook I’m lucky enough to win. I’m having a giveaway, too, so come on over to my blog and enter if you like. Happy poetry month!

FYI for anyone following this who doesn’t see their name a few went into spam so I’ve tried to pull them back out
Both look lovely! I’m also hosting a giveaway on my blog. (You also used to come visit my old blog, “independent study,” and after a long while, I’ve managed to start blogging about poetry again!)
